Nepal – The Reform Agenda (Overview of the past performance and proposals for the future - Harmonization of Donor Assistance in Nepal --
Over the past two-to-three years, His Majesty’s Government of Nepal (HMGN) has been implementing wide-ranging reforms to help support its poverty reduction strategy. Some of these reforms have been path breaking, and they collectively represent a renewed commitment by the Government to bring benefits of development to the people. However, the benefits of these measures may not be readily visible so far to some segments of the society, both because they take time to produce visible results; and because they have been overshadowed by recent socio-political and economic development in the country. This paper briefly discussed the context, objectives, innovative aspects of recent reforms and the lessons learned from them; and how the government will refocus the reform agenda to address these challenges.
